Yes, but I do feel this makes "theft" arguments stronger if they're deliberately evading the paywall, if you decided to be litigious about it.

  This isn't the kind of problem that really ought to be solved through courts. It's obvious to anyone that this is a new kind of problem that no author of the current jurisprudence envisioned. We need new legislation to stop this kind of abuse of the commons.

    Yes. It's always weird to me that people expect laws written over centuries, using precedents from even more centuries, to be able cover scenarios their authors couldn't have possibly imagined. Civil law countries seem better at keeping their laws up to date with new threats whereas a few common law ones (most notably the US) really insist on digging through what an 18th century slave owner would have thought about e.g. AI.

    I strongly agree with you, but I have no confidence in my country's current elected representatives to ever do anything good, so our hands are tied until we vote them out.
